Mediterranean Echoes
The new album by Alekos Vretos
Mediterranean Echoes is a recording by Alekos Vretos. It is a Mediterranean jazz project for oud, clarinet, piano and double bass. Shaped by lyricism, improvisation and chamber-like interplay, the album explores a sound where rhythm emerges organically through the interaction of the ensemble, without drums or percussion.
